Prezi allows the user to create visual information and show connections in a unique way. Students will be very engaged when making their 'Prezi'. I plan on having students learn to do this when required to make a presentation instead of using powerpoint. It is super easy to embed videos, photos and links. It is also easy to determine order or change the order. It allows students to express their creativity much more than powerpoint. Although it has some bells and whistles, there is not so many that the students will be spending hours on them to get it right. More time will be spent on the content. The students will also like the funky spinning effect.
While creating 'Differentiating Instruction' Prezi, I was very engaged and the learning curve for embedding and linking files was very small. It was also very easy to change the order. Students will catch onto this very fast. I like the fact that it is free to students and teachers with 500mb of space.
